Pro Tips:
Round up your bumpers and store them in a bag or bucket as the end of each training session. A bumper that is lying around becomes an invitation to a young dog to chew on. Not only is this negative reinforcement to your dog’s mark training, but it is almost sure to get you an expensive and unnecessary trip to your vet’s office. It you keep it simple, you‘ll avoid complications.

Your dog can’t mark what he can’t see so be fair to him by selecting the appropriate color bumper for each scenario. Training saturations change often and can vary from one mark to the next in the same set up so make sure you have several of each color bumper when you head out for training. This simple rule of thumb will help you maximize your training time and efficiency.
